Springfield Republican.
The arrival of Mr.. Bancroft at Nashville,
Tenn. Saturday night, was attended by an cpl
sode that recalls the grace of other days. He
had been met at the depot by committee of
the State Historical Society and escorted to the
Maxwell House, where he took a cup of tea and
retired to his bedroom. After the Historical So
ciety committee had gone, Mr.. Bancroft
emerged from his chamber, it being 8 o'clock.
and strolled forth He found himself standing
before the Polk mansion. He had informed Mrs.
Polk that he would not call until Sunday morn
ing. but he tempted, and, although it was
half-past 9. he mounted the steps and announced
himself He had to wait but moment in the
parlor before the venerable Mrs. Polk entered.
Dear Mrs. Polk" said the venerable
historian, advancing Il am so glad to
see you, and to find that you looking so
well" There was a moment of hesitation,
recognition and smile. as the distinguished
widow said: rs this Mr.. Bancroft? | am so
grateful that you have come far to see us. !"
The hosptalities OF the mansion were extended
to the visitor, who In turn treated the hostess
with the most gracefel Difference. 1t s even
said that he spoke of the time when she was
slender and graceful and that she could

put away at the Maxwell House! One can never
tell what a man is going to do on Saturday
night.

half of the season and most of the catching dur

Richardson. who is playing third base for the
New York club at present has not made as good
an impression as expected Friends of the club
think that Gerhardt ought to have trial there.
The Toronto News is disguised with the ball
team of that city Because the team has been
defeated by the League and Association clubs
the paper declares that the Toronto players are
no good.
Sunday games will be great loss to the Brook

base ball any good. Many people knowing they

not object

had right to look for protection crowned a
revel of selishness and anger by thrusting her
out into a winter storm, hatless, cloakless and

boarding on Bond street and placed herself
under her protection. That night the landlady

her to New Jersey and married her. However

Walt Whitmans speech-his accent-as dis
played in the reading of his invaluable notes on
Mr.. Lincoln, Thursday afternoon, is singular
and reveatory of several things. It is the broad

a vigor that we now call peculiarly Western; but
as Whitman never lived West, and was born
and brought up in this State, it is evident til at
the aggressive ''r' as we'll as the star of empire

habits But it is just because he has not been

As to the Water Cure.


T
Any kind OF good water is good for the stom-
ach if taken moderately. A goblet of good
fresh water, with little salt dissolved in it, an
hour or half an hour before breakfast, is one of
the very best things anybody can do for the
stomachs sake. Ii acts on the principle of drain
age, cleaning the stomach aud its connecting
tubes. and placing them in good condition for
the days functions. Ice-cold water should never
be taken into the stomach, unless in case of fe-
ysr-then the colder the better, in moderate
quantities Hot water is good for some stom-
achs occasionally, but bad for others. In cases
of dyspepsia or constipation. it serves good
purpose if taken some time before breakfast
But good glass of fresh water early in the
morning is always safe thing to take.
